Hi,

  If the router id of the router R1 is changed on the fly (dynamically),
what factor triggers the adjacent router R2 connected to R1 via point to
point link, to generate the new Router LSA???

 From the RFC i could infer that R1 will flush all his self originated lsas
when it's router lsa has been changed.
  But i couldn't find, how the R2 triggered to generate the new router lsa
with the changed router id as is neighbor id in its router lsa??

Thanks in advance,
Kamatchi.
